next mozilla embedding meetup: May 8th & 9th in Mountain View

I made a note about this in my previous post but I thought it would be worth it to make a separate post about this.

mozilla embedding overview & meetup notes

Notes from the whiteboard.

Two Fridays ago, right in the middle of a brutal two weeks of travel, I stopped by in San Francisco and participated in a brainstorming session around embedding Mozilla into other applications. The raw notes are available in the image above, and are a bit blurry. I will try and [...]

heading to brazil

Getting ready to head to Brazil for FISL. Looking forward to seeing people in Brazil again. Spot, gdk, marcelo, c_scott, mary, taras, chofmann, mitchell. Lots of friends, imported and domestic. (And that’s off the top of my head – I’m sure there will be many more!)

whatwg video support for your phone

Above is a video that I took of Chris Double’s awesome whatwg video work running on my N810. Note that I didn’t have to do anything special to get this to work. I took the two patches, applied them to my trunk mozilla build and ran them through the ARM toolchain. The [...]
